Oh my God! I am sitting in a Krystal's in Birmingham, Alabama and this song just started playing on the restaurant overhead! This is an absolutely amazing song and I love it's message. I had a girlfriend who lived this song and the oppression, internal and external, nearly destroyed her. I hope folks sitting in hamburger joints around the world hear this and stop denying their dreams and their love because they think they are supposed to. Be true to yourselves, sisters and brothers!
Ahhh, the dilemma of a married woman, who has feelings for women, "She loves him, won't hurt him, can't stop the wanting of you". "Tank top, smooth skin, soft lips, tannnnnn thighs". Melissa's music is real and raw! Fearless Love music is her best! Check out these songs Indiana, Company, Gently We Row...
Reminds me so much of me .. I was going to marry a guy, even if always knew I am a lesbian .. in the end I left him before our wedding .. I just couldn't take it anymore. I'm in love with a woman now and happy.
Andrea Jung, That’s great! I got married to a guy, I’d been with since I was 17. We tied the knot on a rainy Saturday morning. I was still 18 for another two months. Apparently, EVERYONE I ever knew, knew. I didn’t know, how come they did?? My bff came out to me awhile later,... I found myself intrigued, instead of horrified as I imagined any other straight woman would feel. Two weeks before my 20th birthday, I finally came out TO MYSELF. Two weeks after my 20th birthday, I left my husband, w/o telling him who I finally knew I was. There were other, less pleasant things happening while we were together,...like Dom. Viol., none of it tempting enough to keep me from my newly found Journey. I eventually settled about an hour North of San Francisco, now. I had about 4 great Loves, (not including my ex-husband), 2 of them LTRs of 16 years and 8 years respectively. The other 2 were short term (6 months) but very, intensely passionate. Now, I’m going to be 60 years old this Spring,...its lonely. But, I have my Senior Cat, Benny. 🥰 🏳️🌈 Edit: Hey 👋, I meant to ask,...Are u still with and in love with the same Woman? The one who you mentioned 8 years ago, in your comment. I really hope that you’re still living your Truth, whatever that looks like, now. ✌️ 💕
I m so happy u chose love I did not and am so out this door just waiting on paperwork. 0bet 15 yrs pain domestic violence verbal abuse I had feelings for girls as a teen like Melissa didn't understand them my folks would not have understood it been disowned. Sad truly but im ready to live for me speak true❤Dallas❤🌈✋
Melissa is Great, I have been to about 10 shows with my dad when I was young Her music got me through my first major depression when I was a child and now as an adult I look to her music to get me through this major depression from a unhealthy relationship that needs to change or end . thanks Melissa.
I found myself yrs ago......Love you MLE I'm a survivor of dmv Ms Melissa saved me.. I go into my headphones & and dream... Someday somewhere I'll find love after my war is over... 💜💜💜🙏🏻☮😍🌹🌈💐🎸🎧🎼
Yesss I feel the same so love every song she's ever done. Ms Melissa kicks ass I found her about 10yrs sgo been major fan since her life her story her music her drive her strength she is my hero💜Dallas💜☮🍀💚😎🌹🌈❤
I love Melissa Etheridge, she is my favorite artist, EVER ! Oh, and I love that jumping girl at 3:48 ! Haha, I would sooo be like that too if I was there !!
I'm in the lie still. Tried to make things right. Can't keep it hidden anymore. Not sure what to do. Fell for someone hard, but it can't be with anyone until I am free. I just don't how to do this anymore.
Now here's a controversial lyrical arrangement. Imagine that: us as human beings and "The Wanting" even though we seem to have all that we need. Melissa has always been edgy and true. She and her band rock this song near the end.
@SwtPoison7 Amen sister.... That's what I said when I watched this video. I heard it first while I was put on hold on the phone and I was like "That's sounds like Melissa! Does she have a new song?" So I googled it and sure enough there she is. She is the bestest :)
Wish my Husband was alive but this song is totally us, I was always attracted to women even in kindergarten I was fascinated by my teacher to the point that's all I thought about! As I got older it still stayed with me I was in Love with a woman's curves, breast, soft skin but I had a older brother who came out and I wanted no part of what he went through. Met my husband in 83 had a daughter in 85 got married in 89 then in 96 or 98 when WebTV was made my husband bought me one and I started going in lesbian chatrooms. Needless to say I talked to a woman for 6 months and loved who was on the other line, when she wanted to meet me I told her I took vows so if my husband doesn't agree then I'm sorry! I asked he cried but said you've been molested for 10 years then raped and pistol whipped so if I have to give you up as my wife then so be it! Please just don't take my Best Friend away! Till this day I cry when I think how unconditional Bob loved me!💖💖💖
And what's wrong with The Wanting Of You? Why can't the wanter have it all? "She" should ask "Him" to allowher the freedom to explore and express. If you don't ask, you don't get in this world. You never know the surprising reply from "Him" (after he picks himself up off the floor). They are definitely going to want to get a babysitter for Saturday nights out, though.
boo : (. she should not be headlining a blues festival. this is not blues, & I listened to 10 songs under the Memphis album & this ruins the blues festival, she should be playing the back porch stage. boo, get Walter Trout, anyone but this!!!

I did ask. Had some time with her but not enough. Back home and now can't stop thinking about her. Don't know what to do.
*The "songs" of Melissa Etheridge are very gynecological.*
boo : (. she should not be headlining a blues festival. this is not blues, & I listened to 10 songs under the Memphis album & this ruins the blues festival, she should be playing the back porch stage. boo, get Walter Trout, anyone but this!!!
